A Network Connecting School Leaders From Around The Globe
Magical things happen when you encourage friendships between students of different abilities! Nonprofit organization Good Friend has been devoted to creating autism awareness, teaching acceptance of differences, and fostering empathy for students with ASD among their typically-developing peers since 2007.
In 2013, co-founders Chelsea Budde and Denise Schamens collaborated with hip hop group The Figureheads (Greg Marshall, Jeremy Bryan, and Dave Olson) to create this original song. Noelle Budde, Evelyn Barta, and Regan Carter also contribute to vocals. The video was filmed by Scott Dahm at Hide House Creative (Bay View, Wis.) with the students from the cast of Good Friend's short film of the same title, released in May, 2014. Michael Foucault assisted. Tim Miller and Denise Schamens worked post-production.
The single is now available for download from your favorite digital music retailer. The peer sensitivity video is available for purchase on DVD at www.goodfriendinc.com.

Mentors.net - a Professional Development Resource
Mentors.net was founded in 1995 as a professional development resource for school administrators leading new teacher induction programs. It soon evolved into a destination where both new and student teachers could reflect on their teaching experiences. Now, nearly thirty years later, Mentors.net has taken on a new direction—serving as a platform for beginning teachers, preservice educators, and
other professionals to share their insights and experiences from the early years of teaching, with a focus on integrating artificial intelligence. We invite you to contribute by sharing your experiences in the form of a journal article, story, reflection, or timely tips, especially on how you incorporate AI into your teaching
practice. Submissions may range from a 500-word personal reflection to a 2,000-word article with formal citations.
